- Host is a mess
He’s a blowhard with a super annoying voice. Don’t host if you want to interrupt everyone. Just have a monologue!

United Statesa month ago - Engaging even for a skeptic
95% of what the show covers is cultural garbage, but it's garbage that makes the world go round so the podcast is a good way to keep from being completely out of touch. One small favor: please don't call celebrities by their first names; my tooth enamel can't take any more of "Timmy."
Apple Podcasts4Gelatinous ParcelUnited Statesa month ago - obnoxious
